Oh you know what time it is...

So it's wedding invitation time. Holy crap, where did the time go? Long engagement my ass, there's no such thing...
So I think I'm pretty organized in this department. I got every one's lists, I got every one's addresses. I have fallen in love with http://www.theknot.com/ - which totally keeps me focused. I often find that highlighting things and sticking random post notes amidst all of my papers and list makes me feel somehow that things are getting done... I often wonder what people did when planning their wedding before the Internet. I asked my cousin who got married in 1992. I was really curious because I think this would be 10 times harder & more frustrating then it already is without good ol' Internet. Anyway, back to 1992. I was 12 years old and commodore (sp?) computers and 16 bit Nintendo were my recipe for fun and I was patiently waiting for December to hurry up and come so that I could obtain my copy of "Much Music's Dance mix '92" cassette tape for Christmas. My cousin said that she depended on referrals for wedding vendors back then. The video guy suggested the photographer, the photographer suggested the flower lady, the flower lady suggested a cake guy. Yowza, sounds more like some kind of a treasure hunt or a cult initiation then planning a wedding. Maybe I shouldn't bitch & moan so much about this whole deal, clearly I have it very easy compared to the ghosts of wedding pasts...

Totally unrelated, but I have to get this out. I guess with the introduction of MTV Canada, people no longer feel the need to watch Much Music anymore. Much Music did not get the memo that kids don't care about "music videos" anymore, they care about reality TV shows about C list celebrities doing embarrassing and stupid things. I happened to wander onto this channel a few days ago and I was very sad to see what it has become. I'm not going to lie, its pretty bad. It was boring and it sucked. The kid with the purple hair did nothing to captivate me or make me even the least bit interested. I'm pretty sure that the only reason he got the job was because he had purple hair. "Oh yes, you are different and rebellious, you got the job". Give me a freaking break. Someone put that channel out of its misery...

(But not Much More Music, because I really like the VH1 likeness of that channel)
